Why it was refused

  1. The proposed rear extension, by reason of its depth, mass and bulk in proximity to the side boundary would result in an overbearing and unneighbourly form of development which would be detrimental and harmful to the residential amenities of the occupiers of the attached neighbouring property and would be contrary to Policies H4 and D5 of the Guildford Local Plan Development Management Policies, the Residential Extensions and Alterations Guide Supplementary Planning Document and the National Planning Policy Framework.
  2. The proposal includes bedroom accommodation in the loft area would have a floor area below the minimum national space standards for a single bedroom and therefore it is considered that this would result in unacceptable living conditions for future occupants and would be contrary to policies H4 and D5 of the Local Plan Development Management Policies, the Residential Extensions and Alterations Guide Supplementary Planning Document 2018 and the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
